2015 GT M6 355 gears stock tires
I was at the track tonight and had a very strange thing happen ...If I left at anything up to and over ( 3000 to 3500 ) the car would come out of the hole hard for about 30 feet then the car would fall on it's face and rev really really slow all the though first gear right to red line .It felt like someone just flipped switch and turned off the power in first gear ...As soon as I hit second gear the car would haul ass ..It felt like the T/C was on but it was OFF ..It was like you had the brakes on in first gear . It would bog down almost to idle and then rev up so so slow it felt like you were pulling a 10,000 pound trailer behind you ..As soon as I shifted to second gear it would wheel hop and grab and haul ass . The only way I could stop the power loss was to leave at idle and then floor it and then it would haul butt in first gear.. When it would lose power in first gear it would run high 14.90s @ 108... Leaving at idle it ran a 12.78 @ 112.30 ...Any RPM higher on the launch it was back to high 14s .. It felt like someone stuffed a rag in the throttle body after the first 30 feet ..
Has anyone else had this problem ? I going to add drag radials shorty and leave at a much higher RPM to get the 60 footer lower ..But I'm worried it will bog like it did with the street tires. There was a bunch of new 2015 GT M6 there and if the left hard they would just blow the tires off , they watched my car leave hard for a few feet and they say it sounded like I just let off the throttle .. I can assure you I had it to the mat every time . :shrug:
